My walkman e-dj 855 won’t play certain CDs, because of it’s format files
One example is this cd that I got recently
https://www.discogs.com/release/6790329-Marina-And-The-Diamonds-Froot
It keeps reading the cd, but never plays.
So the question is any recommendations on cd player?
Something under 100, like the Instant Disc Audio CP1.
I can’t help you but in the 2000s they started to put copy protection on some audio CDs. Those CDs could not be played on cheap players or in car players that were using weird (and also cheap) hardware. Could that be the case here?
No, that’s not the case.
They put copy protection on SACDs, but that only prevents the higher definition layer from playing, they usually have a second normal redbook audio layer with no DRM that any CD player can read.
I looked into this 2 years ago.
A portable CD player with bluetooth and SDcard exists.
The Monodeal CD707 seemed the most solid option.
Website is sold-out, but showing at 99 for a new unit on eBay.

There are plenty of alternate models too.
Cool!
I’d initially be going for brands that make other quality, well known audio equipment like Fiio & Moondrop (Syitren also seems okay). Outside of that, I’d stay within my price range and make sure the player has CD, CD-R, CD-RW, MP3 and WMA capabilities. Like maybe the Klim Nomad portable CD player.
Also, just looked at the price of the Instant Disk - it’s $270aud so you can for sure go the Fiio if that’s your price range
Cool thanks!
